Two people were swept to their deaths as the whole of South Yorkshire was devastated by torrential rain and the worst floods in living memory.
Thousands of people were forced from their homes as rain started falling on June 25, 2007, causing severe flooding as rivers burst their banks.
An estimated £1bn of damage was caused as floodwater wrecked homes and businesses.
Meadowhall shopping centre was among those affected.
